Hi all,
I've almost got a roller for my trike build, which I hope to finish this week!
I've taken a lot of inspiration from the 'The Garage Vlog' Trikes. You can get an idea of what I'm going for HERE
I'm stuck when it comes to gearing, as I'm not experienced in this at all. The TGV guys use a torque convertor, and I'm debating whether I need one or whether to run a centrifugal clutch. Any suggestions on a build like this?
I also don't know what a reasonable gear ratio for something like this would be. They use a 48-tooth rear sprocket which I cannot find anywhere, so trying to understand what alternatives I can find using kart parts, or potentially mini-bike parts.
It's really quite hard to source parts outside of the US and its mostly kart spares here in the UK, hence some of the conflict in what route to go down.
Interested to see what you guys think.
Thanks
